Roger, Thanks for the quick response. I am out of synch with January - I plan to be at the Sault on the 6th but not the 13th. I'm planning to hike with my...

Hi all, I'm new here and I have a question on parking while hiking some your section of the NCT. Our/my plan is to leave a vehicle at St.Ignace State Park,...
Mike, The Shallows has a pretty good sized parking area. There should be no problem parking there. Your options in St. Ignace also include the MDOT Welcome...
Hi Roger, Thanks for the parking tips. Would it be worth while starting at the Welcome center rather than St. Ignace S.P. The trail does go through the State...
Hi, I'm in the planning stages for this hike and have a few questions. 1) Is there (1) or (2) different parking area's on Casle Rock rd. My NCT map shows (2)...

Roger, Any idea what the parking area is like at Bark Dock? Is this a NCT TH parking area? I'm not sure if we should start here, or at Shallows beach, but the...
Both parking areas are paved. The Shallows lot is larger and probably sees more activity with swimmers in the summer; the USFS installed a toilet there two...
Bark Dock seems to be the best place then for us to park and start our hike. The only reason we're hiking north to south is we'll be driving up from the south,...
